"After all this hullabaloo about how the PlayStation 3 is the only “true” HD console, here comes the release of FarCry 2 to slap Sony’s PR in the balls. In addition to people complaining about the messed-up widescreen and mandatory 3.5GB install, the PS3 version falls short of its Xbox 360 counterpart by only supporting 720p while the 360 version supports full 1080p."

becoz of hardware differences where xbox360 has twice the graphic power of PS3? hmm.gif

but the cut down on picture thingy is unacceptable and a installation of 3.5 gb OMG.. MGS4 needs 5 gb.. so wat?

but again ? Why 3.5 GB while xbox 360 is 6mb of save file ?

cut down of the usage of blue ray lens?

what i can think of, blue ray lens doesn't last when over Used IMO.. (always will be)

yup. on the xbox it's still native 720p but just upscaled to 1080p.

so ultimately both are 720p.

it's probably listed as 1080p on the xbox cover for marketing purposes. wink.gif

The kid's just quoting from some article again...

http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-220698.aspx

Edit: Full article - http://www.ripten.com/2008/10/23/ps3-under...arcry-2-gimped/

Yup, its just marketing gimmick on the "Native" resolutions being used behind the box.

Age isn't an issue when one posts like a kid.

Back up ur threads with something to discuss on, not just shove it here and expect it to be the Legendary Thread.

Just so you know, Sony often only advertises 1080p if the game supports it natively.

360 will have 1080p listed on many games that are actually 720p upscaled.

Alah, if you don't like it, then don't buylah. Far Cry 2 isn't a perfect game anyway. Read up Eurogamer's review. I mean, I remember when some fanboi called out Bungie for ONLY displaying Halo 3 on 640p. Did the world end?

In the end, developers have to learn to work with the hardware lah. Kalau tak, rugi.

I guess that explain why PS3 sales is so shitty even in Japan

Week 6: 360 Tops PS3 in Japan
12
The Xbox 360 has outsold the PlayStation 3 for the sixth week in Japan. It's happened so often now that it's not even funny anymore. For the week ending October 17 the PS3 sits at the bottom of the chart.

Here's the full sales list:

PSP - 156000
DS - 34000
Wii - 25000
PS2 - 7800
360 - 6000
PS3 - 4800

PS3 has been in Japan for so long.. Japanese bought/owns the PS3s since the first generation. and not all of them knew xbox360 well @ tat time(although 1 year head time) .. naturally @ the beginning, they chosen PS3s, native to their home and due to the promises PS3s give them..

in the end. almost every teen has a PS3. so it does not make sense for them to buy another. so they bought XBOX 360 to add to their collection after good reviews coming in.. IMO

why should I worry about consoles sales figure?
GAMERS just want to play GAMES!
I just want to play GAMES!
I just can't understand why gamers must discuss about consoles sales figure....
Pointless... It is not going to change anything
GAMERS should focus on GAMES and THE CONSOLES TECHNICAL stuff only...
SALES FIGURES only concern the Marketing Guys at Sony, Microsoft etc...
Please don't start this kind of thread already.... Annoying la...
this kind of thread will push other 'RELEVAN' thread downward (I hate using 'Search' in forum)..
So, pls la....
